I hope you get well soon from that damn cold.
@Ben.R.C - Happy Birthday. May the head cold be mild / short-lived and the smokes outstanding today.
On a side note, I was looking through some tobaccos on SP today and noted that their description of 4th Gen 1931 flake doesn't even mention the burley or black cav components. Odd, since i've always considered the burley component the most dominant.
Smoking Pipes:
[1931 Flake] strikes a natural balance in the distinct characteristics of steam pressed superior mature Virginias to please true flake lovers.
Tobacco Reviews and 4 Noggins use the same quote:
[1931 Flake] strikes a natural balance in the distinct characteristics of superior burleys and mature Virginias by using a small measure of black cavendish to please true flake lovers.
The Country Squire also uses the same wording as above and directly attributes this to a quote from Erik Stokkebye himself. Just thought it was odd that SP didn't mention anything but the VA and has it listed as a VA family blend when i've always considered it a burley blend.

If you get a picture with a pipe and a whale in the background, that would be legendary
Took the day off work for a few doctor appointments today. Left the first and still working on this bowl of Burley Flake No.1 I started last night in my C22.
Heck yeah man that's always good. Safe travels.GH&Co Kendal #7 in a blasted Ropp J07.
